Why won’t someone go public with the vandelism that goes on at the so called neglected parks! Do you see broken beer bottles at Compton? Do you see fixtures torn out of the ground for fun? Do you see street lights shot out?
We can say it ain’t racism but that is what it is. The black community feels the need to keep saying “we want what THEY have”. They HAVE it. They don’t take care of it. They just want to complain about it. This is a fact.
Exactly. Cheetum didn’t look like that when it opened. I wonder why It looks like that now? Is it because of THE MAN??? Orrrrrrrrrrr could it be that the people that visit Cheetum have continually neglected it. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I think they should take out the basketball goals and barbque pits at Cheetum and put in a walking trail. If Cheetum is just like Compton, I am sure that would solve all the valdalism.
Probably you see bottles and trash on the ground because they don’t have FANCY trash cans. That is the only reason Cheetum is dirty.
Heres a possible reason. The people that use them either appreciate, care and maintain them or they vandalize, and use as a drug buying location. Also, one is PAID for by the people who use it and the other is GIVEN to the ones who use it. Is THIS an example of what Charles FREDERICK SMITH as mayor would be like? If so…then i out he will see any white vote.. Hey here is an idea. How bout CFS give the park some of that one cent your sheriff got.
You can look at the same situation in black neighborhoods/government built and paid for housing areas. They’re for the most part, dilapidated and poorly cared for simply because the people who live in them have been raised in a society where they depend on the government for nearly everything they have and they haven’t been forced to work for anything. When you actually WORK for something you tend to take better care of it. HINT HINT to the white AND black trash in the community.
Did anyone notice that when KALB went back to do the story on why the difference and played the story from the “public’s” side they only interviewed one person at Compton as a private citizen and then the head of the City Parks and Recreation? How balanced was that? Why not take a camera to Cheetum on a weekend and ask the people there why their park is so rundown? Why they throw their trash on the ground instead of in the cans provided? Why do they allow their children to smear graffiti all over the playground equipment?

We must be racist. Of course if they tear it up it is OUR resposibility as the tax paying whites to a)build it b) fix it when they tear it up.
It isn’t racist. There are white trash as well.

Amen! Cheetum is probably only used at night for drug deals, so you’d have a hard time finding someone to interview.
